in reply to: Ashby Bowhunting Foundation Website #140412Thanks Robin
I checked it out . Very well done . All those interested in the science of arrow lethality and the Ashby studies should have a look —

” water water everywhere and all the boards did shrink ” Sounds pretty amphibious- might even have had to watch out for trench foot under those conditions—just the opposite for out here ( CDT).
Did you find it very crowded ? Looking forward to your thought on ” lessons learned” —
A grand adventure – thanks for letting us tag along

Excellent – not surprised looking at the design of the bow. I checked around a bit, People that own a kota – really like em. Let us now how it all sorts out.

Great pics – was the water in the low ground ( lot of rain) and /or a lot of stream crossings? See any bear sign ? How about Elk, I know some of the state’s you went thru have reintroduced elk, any up on the trail. Lessons learned? Advice for any others who might take the trail? If you are going to write an article or two about it – curious about what gear worked and what didn’t.

You bet
That’s what we’re here for. Nice looking bow , I bet it will shoot great

in reply to: Kota killum brace height. #140352Hi Ronald
The way to get the best answer is to contact the maker. What I would do to be sure. Without knowing the bows stats starting at 7 1/4 and adjusting ( down/up ) to suit.
I was not familiar with that bow and had to Google it up . Very nice.

in reply to: Nfaa trad class #140350Hi Ronald
Welcome to tradbow. I can’t answer that question. It’s been a long time since I shot any competition. I took a quick look at the rules ( haha more than I remember) but they allow what you mentioned —-if I went, I would just use my hunting equipment and not worry about it – competition requires shooting under stress which of course is good practice for the excitement of the hunting shot — if you want to win that class, you might have to adjust your tackle.
Hopefully one of our members who shoots competition will post on the subject. Might know what that class is shifting to.

Glad you made it thru and home ok – and apparently “little the worse for wear”
Hiked parts of PCT in CA when i was younger, but didnt do any of it in the other states. As you indicated the CDT ( not completely finished and at least in NM short on water along large portions) is a humdinger —-
I did walk some of the PA parts of the AT when I lived there many moons ago so have a basic idea of part of your experience.
Looking forward to seeing your posts . Glad your grand adventure concluded without any major injury etc —just good memories and the satisfaction of accomplishing a difficult goal with your son.

Hi Stephen
Well Done! Congrats on your major accomplishment ! How about some pics when you get a chance ? See much game?
I have thought about doing the continental divide trail – done parts in the past. Unfortunately do to health issues I’ve waited too long to travel the whole route anymore.

in reply to: Guided Elk Hunt #140005Hi Chris
Hopefully grizz will respond to you. Or maybe some of the other members who want to hunt in AZ will contact you. What area of the state are you in — or do you guide all over?
